Trump Calls Catching COVID-19 “A Blessing From God” In White House Video

After spending a few days in the hospital receiving treatment for COVID-19, President Donald Trump is back in the White House. America’s controversial leader has been reguarly updating his world audience since he was released from Walter Reed Hospital, and just hours ago he returned with a video where he spoke about his treatment, his plans for coronavirus patients currently battling COVID-19, and why he believes his diagnosis was a “blessing in disguise.”

“Perhaps you recognize me, it’s your favorite president, and I’m standing in front of the Oval Office at the White House which is always an exciting place to be,” said Trump. “I got back a day ago from Walter Reed medical center. I spent four days there. Didn’t have to. I could have stayed at the White House but the doctor said because you’re President, let’s do it. I said fine. You tell me what to do and I’m gonna listen.”

He praised the doctoral staff at Walter Reed before giving a nod to all hospital care and law enforcement workers, as well as firefighters around the country. “I went in, I wasn’t feeling so hot and within a very short period of time, they gave me Regeneron and other things, too. I think this was the key. But they gave me Regeneron and it was like, unbelievable. I felt good immediately. I felt as good three days ago as I do now.”

The President added that he authorized the emergency use of Regeneron and other drugs to help those in dire need, stating that they would be available for free. He also gave an update on companies who have been working on finding a COVID-19 vaccaine, but said in the meantime, he wants to see citizen treated with the same care that he received.

“I want everybody to be given the same treatment as your President,” Trump said. “‘Cause I feel great. I feel like, perfect. So, I think this was a blessing from God that I caught it. This was a blessing in disguise. I caught it, I heard about this drug, I said let me take it, it was my suggestion, and it was incredible the way it worked.” Watch his update in its entirety below.

Billy Chuck Da Goat finds his flow on new release “Vibez”

Billy Chuck Da Goat’s latest release, “Vibez,” has a laid-back, hypnotic bounce that makes it easy to listen to without ever feeling empty. It makes a place where calmness and quiet confidence come together.

“Vibez” was made on purpose, but it also sounds simple. Billy Chuck’s smooth delivery flows through the production without rushing or pushing anything. Instead, he lets the rhythm breathe, allowing people to get into the song at their own pace. This laid-back energy is the best part of the song, nothing feels forced, which is exactly what it’s trying to do.

The track changes to fit whatever you need it for, like a late-night drive, a focused workout, or a way to unwind after a long day. It has a quiet edge of confidence, it’s not loud or bragging, but it’s steady and sure of itself.

François Marius and Bérénice creates a tender acoustic pop confession with “Billie Jean”

François Marius’ latest release, “Billie Jean (Acoustic Version),” cuts to the quick and lets raw emotion take over. What you get, ultimately, is a personal pop experience that feels closer to a secret than to either a spoken-word show or a performance. The initial soft strum of an acoustic guitar creates a mood that is soft, sweet, and quietly interesting. It’s a full-throated, backbones-out piece, and every note is screaming its potential. It’s simple but riveting, and it proves that sometimes less is more.

François Marius and Bérénice’s voices sound right together, their voicings intermingle so naturally that they seem accidental or spontaneous, harmonies that emerge from nowhere. The way they speak to one another is very, I mean, they really love each other. That even makes the track seem like a conversation about feelings.

The two artists are clearly close. Romance and Eros are not just ideas, and they inhabit every note that lingers and every minuscule shift in tonality. The harmonies soar effortlessly over the acoustic foundation, a blend of sweetness and strength. It’s a sign of strength and also of a willingness to be hurt.

“Billie Jean (Acoustic Version)” is stripped of any fancy production or theatrical effects, it wins you over with its frankness and forthrightness. Sandy François Marius’s impersonation is fresh and real, endowed with depth and softness thanks to Bérénice’s presence, which definitely makes everything more perfect. This acoustic performance serves as a stark reminder of the elements that do connect people: the singer, his guitar, and a story from the heart.
